101 Things in 1001 Days (Round Two)

A few years ago I came across this fun challenge that Mackenzie Horan from Design Darling was doing on her blog. The task is simple: make a list of 101 things to complete in 1,001 days.

I like this personal challenge because it is to be completed over an extended period of time. It is a fun way to incorporate bigger goals in with smaller, fun items to complete!

I completely dropped the ball on the first round that I did a few years ago. *Hangs head in shame* But I am really excited to give it another go this time and really make a conscious effort to complete the items on it.

It was such a trip reading the goals that I set in the first round of this challenge. My priorities have completely changed since writing it, and it is very clear (at least to me) that I was a lot younger and in a different place in my life.

Anyway, on to the good stuff.

PS. I’m bad at counting and accidentally wrote 104 things. Oh well!
